Pregnancy is a magical time! There are many changes taking place physically, mentally, and emotionally. People often ask me how I'm feeling, but I've seldom been asked what I'm thinking. In case you were wondering, here are some of my most common pregnant thoughts!

1. There is an actual human growing inside of me!

2. What a miracle!

3. It’s also kind of weird.

4. Miraculous, but definitely weird.

5. I think I have to pee.

6. Hmm, what should I eat for breakfast?

7. Can’t eat that, I get heartburn.

8. Can’t eat that, it makes me nauseous.

9. Can’t drink that, no caffeine.

10. Ugh.

11. I just felt her kick!

12. Wow, she’s super strong.

13. Can she kick anything important in there?

14. How close is she to my vital organs?

15. Is she near my kidneys?

16. Where even are my kidneys?

17. Please let this child be smarter than me.

18. I wonder what she will look like…

19. I hope she isn’t ugly.

20. That’s awful, I shouldn’t think that.

21. All babies are beautiful!

22. Well, not ALL babies…

23. Continues to hope future baby is not ugly.

24. Do I actually have to pee or is it just the baby pushing on my bladder?

25. I’m going to pee just to be safe.

26. My stomach looks so funny.

27. My belly button is all distorted!

28. That goes back, right?

29. RIGHT?!

30. How much of this is the baby and how much is just me getting fat?

31. I should probably stop eating so much ice cream.

32. Oh my god, ice cream.

33. Ice cream sounds wonderful right now.

34. I’m going to eat some ice cream.

35. I have to pee again.

36. Time to get dressed!

37. Let’s see what still fits…

38. Ooh, this shirt really shows off my baby belly!

39. But then people will want to touch my stomach.

40. I’m going to wear my frumpy sweater instead.

41. I should pee before I leave.

42. Seat-belts and baby bellies do not mix well.

43. Why is getting out of a car so difficult now?

44. Sees child having tantrum.

45. My child is NEVER going to do that.

46. Oh god, my child is totally going to do that.

47. Panic.

48. Let’s go look at baby clothes!

49. After I pee again.

50. Awe, these are so tiny and precious!

51. I can’t believe I’m going to have a little person tiny enough to fit into these.

52. I can’t wait to meet her.

53. I love her so, so, so much.

54. I have next to no idea what I’m doing.

55. But I’m so excited to be her mommy.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
